Whole - Julia's Jamie Oliver Spinach and Ricotta Cannelloni

Still craving Western food, Julia turned to Jamie for a cannelloni recipe.

 

The wonderful tomato sauce with basil and garlic was very good, but the creme fraiche made the whole dish too rich. I was quite shocked ot see 4 types of cheese in the dish! Ricotta in the filling, mozarella in the topping, creme fraiche instead of bechamel sauce, and finally, grated parmesan cheese on top!

 

Next time, I think we'll just do tomato sauce and parmesan, or perhaps Antonio Carluccio's baked gnocchi with the simple tomato sauce and parmesan cheese.

 

I spooned the extra filling into a ramekin lined with basil and it turned out to be a nice little baked ricotta pudding! I'll do that again, but squeezing more moisture from the spinach.
